Testing updated GNMA reporting and feedback system

Ginnie Mae (GNMA) APM 23-05, APM 24-03, and Modernization Bulletin 39 announced implementation details on additional loan-level data elements required to be included in the Reporting and Feedback System (RFS) investor reporting process, effective September 1, 2024, for August 2024 activity

Testing Phase

The testing phase for RFS updates is from March 2024 to August 2024. Training materials and detailed information regarding testing procedures and implementation schedules are available on the Modernization Initiatives page on Ginnie Mae’s website .

How to Participate in Testing

We are enhancing the GNMA RFS Issuers Monthly Reporting Export in Fusion Servicing Director to support the expanded data requirements.

We expect to have a “GNMA RFS BETA package” with the GNMA updates ready on 17th April 2024 for our clients who would like to test the updated RFS file. Create a case to request the GNMA RFS BETA package for testing and we will reach out to you with further instructions. Once installed, the updated RFS file can be generated by following your normal export file generation workflow.  

Note: You do not need to create a new case if you have already raised a case to notify us of your interest in testing the GNMA updates.
